Pulpit Commentary

Pulpit CommentaryVerse 20. - Where is he? Reuel reproaches his daughters with a want of politeness - even of gratitude. Why have they "left the man"? Why have they not invited him in? They must themselves remedy the omission - they must go and "call him" - that he "may eat bread," or take his evening meal with them.

Ellicott's Commentary

Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers(20) That he may eat bread.--Arab hospitality was offended that the stranger had not been invited into the tent to partake of the evening meal. The feeling of the modern Bedouin would be the same.
